Dixit

Each turn, one player selects a card from their hand of surreal, dreamlike illustrations and gives a cryptic clue. Other players submit cards they think match the clue, and everyone votes on which card was the original. The magic is in the clue: too obvious and everyone guesses correctly (bad); too obscure and nobody gets it (also bad). Dixit rewards creativity, lateral thinking, and knowing your audience. It won the 2010 Spiel des Jahres and remains the most imaginative party game ever made.
